GPS Navigation System [merged threads]

[woohoo]

Balikbayan na gustong mag karoon ng map pero hindi naman sila contributor since hindi naman sila nag stay ng matagal sa Pinas ay no way na mag kakaroon ng contributor's map. Sana meron silang option sa ganitong user.

Perhaps you can submit names of establishments in your locality/neighborhood in the Philippines, sir.

Or, use the OSM map, it's available to everyone, free of charge. No need to contribute.

i think merong option. puede ka mag-contribute ng google earth traces of roads, rivers, buildings & etc. sa kahit anong area sa Pinas. may mga contributors sa roadguide eto ginawa nila and it earned them contributor status. may isa pa nga who became a major contributor because of his GE tracing contributions. and sila na bahala mag-adjust ng tracings mo to fit into the roadguide map...

[SIZE=1]note:[/SIZE] You can either use a card reader for your SD card or or leave it plugged in your Treo and use a pc data cable. You can choose either destinations when installing the Garmin Mobile XT files and when using MapSource to load a map.

And don't forget to do back-ups beforehand in case of data loss.

HTH

sir SS,

i have already installed the garmin XT software to my treo and when i run it there is an option that says Enter product key" and "connect to a garmin GPS"...

does this mean i can't use my pda as a gps?...sorry cause am really not a techie kind and i don't have enough know-how about this..if so, what gps receiver would you suggest?...

one more thing is i could not install the mapsource.it says "previous mapsource not found"..since i don't originally have the mapsource on my pc.

It will work. The Mobile 20 was designed around the time when the PalmOS Treos were still mainstream. It was discontinued due to the magic of miniaturization and convergence. In layman's terms, most Smarphones nowadays already has an integrated GPS receiver.

Nope, IMO. My dad bought one last summer and I've used it. It has a lot of quirks. Maybe it's good enough if it just costs 1/3 of the 18,500 price tag. Otherwise, I won't recommend it.

[supermanila]

question lang po, gagana po ba ang GPS ng mga ganitong LCD device sa garmin or any local GPS device? May free din syang GPS device ata pag bumili ka nitong entertainment system.
